Frequently asked questions
Do I need any previous art experience to join?
Absolutely! Most of our guests in Lisbon have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to hold the can, control the pressure, and create clean lines. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It's all about having fun and expressing yourself in a supportive, creative environment.
What materials are included in the workshop?
We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, protective overalls, gloves, and high-quality respiratory masks. We also provide the surface you'll be painting on, whether it's a shared wall or individual canvases. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some old shoes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on!
Is the workshop safe for children and beginners?
Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paints and provide all necessary safety gear, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks and gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or specially designed indoor spaces. Our artists are also trained in site safety to ensure everyone has a blast without any risks.
What happens if it rains on the day of the workshop?
Lisbon's weather is usually fantastic, but if it rains, we've got you covered. We have access to several sheltered outdoor spots and indoor studio spaces across the city. If the weather looks truly terrible, we can often reschedule or move to a fully indoor venue. We'll always communicate with you in advance so your creative flow isn't interrupted by a splash of rain.
How long does a typical graffiti session last?
A standard public art workshop in Lisbon usually lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, some practice runs, and the creation of your final piece. If you're looking for a more intensive masterclass or have a large group, we can customise the duration to fit your schedule perfectly.
Do I need to pay for the workshop in advance?
We believe in the quality of our workshops, so we don't require any upfront payment. You can book your session, and payment is only handled after the workshop is complete. This keeps things stress-free and ensures you are 100% satisfied with your street art experience. For larger corporate bookings or festivals, we can discuss flexible billing options that suit your needs.
Are there discounts available for large groups or schools?
Yes, we love helping groups celebrate! Whether it's a birthday in Bairro Alto or a team-building event near the docks, we offers special rates for larger groups. The price per person generally decreases as your group size increases. Simply use our Cost Calculator or send us a request for a custom quote to get the best possible price for your Lisbon crew.
